Movies with Pilot House Trucks

[MBF]

Looks like there is no inner fenders or nosepiece on it.  You can see through the left fenderwll and see the chrome from the truck on the Mercedes taxi parked in front of it.   Must be one of those air cooled foreign exported models.

I like the Cushman too.

Wow I've seen that movie many times and never noticed that. Every time I buckle a seatbelt in a car where you have to pull it tight for yourself I say " I just like to feel safe"

[MBF]

I watched a trucker movie last week but I can't recall the name(Hi Ballin')? The hijackers were in a ph pickup. It got rolled early on in the movie.  I noticed that in several movies, the bad guys are in MoPars.  Wuzupwidat?  I thought we were the white hat guys.

we're so bad, we're good!

The title of this thread is "MOVES with . . . ".  When I opened it up I was expecting to see something like maybe an old outhouse in the bed or an old cab converted to the same.

In Mad Max 2 (The Road Warrior in the US), the scene where Max is driving the Semi back into the camp and all the bad guys rush to their cars to give chase, the flat black truck that falls off the stands and crushes the guy's legs is a 51-53

Brian;

Ahh...."the Rounders" my favorite movie. I love that scene when they cross Red Rock Creek.....it's classic.Complete with a very sexy.............................. 3/4 tonner.

 

There is going to be a sequel to this movie soon. "Rounders Too". Found a great location up in the Cleveland National Forest off of Ortega Hwy. Some new customers of mine have a small horse ranch in what was part of the old Rancho Capistrano. Prefect setting and there is even plenty of barns and horses. I already have the "star" lined up so I guess I will have to let my beard grow out scraggly so I can play the part of Edgar Buchannon. Now if I could just find my old cowboy hat.......

Huh.....I don't see a lot of military dodge trucks up close.....but this one has frenched headlights and a bumper blended into the fender......almost like it was buildt to roll.....maybe to hide the reinforcment of the front...incase they had to roll it a few times???

That was not a movie. The actual military footage was just used in Hawaii Five O. The truck was on it's way to Florida where back in the sixties the nerve gas cannisters were then encased in concrete and then dumped off the coast of Florida. You know when you see 200 dolphins dead on the beach and the spin is "for some unknown reason" Now you know the real reason.

 

 

 

 

Think cheerful thoughts and remember when you are driving your truck it really is 1950 and everything's gonna be alright.

Check out the trailer on YouTube of the new Mad Max movie coming out next year. There is an early Dodge truck on steroids.
